Avanti Popolo (1986)
Directed by Rafi Bukai
Overview
A beautiful anti-war movie. It describes the surreal journey of two Egyptian soldiers as they’re coming back to Cairo from the Six-day War of 1967. One is an aspiring actor, whose biggest role so far was that of Shakespeare’s Shylock (the irony of fate), who contributes the role of the sad clown (played by the Arab-Israeli actor Salim Daw).
